For the second table of dishes, although Jing Mo ordered more portions, the royal waiter's understanding of the portion was different from Yu Xiaoxiao's. Looking at the dishes served, Yu Xiaoxiao shook her head. The amount of meat in the dishes could be counted at a glance. It would be too unfair if this restaurant didn't go bankrupt.
Gu Xinglang saw Yu Xiaoxiao shaking her head and hurriedly whispered, "Don't you want to eat anymore?"
Yu Xiaoxiao put the entire belly of the fish into Gu Xinglang's bowl and whispered, "It's a little, but it tastes good. Try it."
Gu Xinglang held the chopsticks and watched Yu Xiaoxiao continue to eat without raising her head. Her mouth looked small, and he didn't know how these meat and vegetables were eaten in the blink of an eye. Gu Xinglang didn't dare to pick up the chopsticks to eat the fish. The intuition he had trained on the battlefield made the Third Young Master Gu feel that this table of food might not be enough to feed his wife. "Eat slowly," Gu Xinglang poured soup for Yu Xiaoxiao, fearing that his wife would choke.
"Hmm," Yu Xiaoxiao took a sip of the soup from the spoon in Gu Xinglang's hand, and then her eyes lit up again and she said to Gu Xinglang, "It's delicious."
Gu Xinglang scooped a clam from the soup bowl and placed it in Yu Xiaoxiao's bowl. He said, "If you like it, we can ask the kitchen to make this soup when we return home."
Yu Xiaoxiao nodded vigorously. Finding an unpolluted fish that can be eaten in the apocalypse is more difficult than discovering a new world. It is so happy to be able to live in this world. Her Royal Highness the Princess said to her husband, "Let's make this tomorrow."
"Okay," Gu Xinglang agreed without thinking, and then he thought about it. He suddenly remembered that river clams are only available in summer. Where can he get river clams to eat at this time? Gu Xinglang looked up at Jing Mo. Where did these Japanese slayers get fresh river clams?
Jing Mo's face looked a little ugly. He had invited these two to discuss matters, but he didn't expect them to come to his place to eat. They even raised their cases and brows as if no one was around. Was it a show or were they both shameless? After meeting Gu Xinglang's gaze, Jing Mo smiled and said, "How can I trouble you, Prince Consort Gu, to serve the princess for dinner? Someone, come here."
A maid in a Xiang blue dress walked up to the table where Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang were sitting.
Jing Mo said: "This is the slave girl I just bought not long ago, let her serve Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Gu Xinglang glanced at the maid, his eyes trembling, but his expression remained unchanged, and he asked, "Qingyu?"
"My Lord," Qingyu knelt in front of the table and whispered to Gu Xinglang, "My name is Chuqiu now."
Yu Xiaoxiao was eating happily, but when she heard the name Chuqiu, her hand that was holding a piece of tender bamboo shoots with chopsticks froze in mid-air. Chuqiu?
After becoming a couple with Empress Linglong, Jing Mo gave Yu Ziyi a maid. This maid accompanied the seventh prince Yu Ziyi all the way and took good care of him. Even the step of Yu Ziyi's growth from a teenager to a man was taken care of by this maid. In the end, Yu Ziyi cruelly killed his sister to seize the throne. It was this maid who tricked the south gate of the imperial palace into opening for him. Yu Xiaoxiao remembered the maid's name very clearly: Chu Qiu. After Yu Ziyi was crowned king, everyone in Fengtian knew that Prince Rui had a lady named Chu Qiu.
Oh my god, Yu Xiaoxiao looked at the beauty kneeling in front of the table. She hadn't even hooked up with Jing Mo yet, and she showed up in early autumn? How could she have fun with the plot changed like this?
Jing Mo glanced at the expressions of the young couple below. One had a cold face, and the other had no expression. These two were quite good at keeping their composure. "Chu Qiu," Jing Mo ordered Qing Yu, "Why don't you come forward and serve the princess?"
"Yes," Qingyu responded to Jingmo and crawled on his knees to Yu Xiaoxiao's side.
"No need." Yu Xiaoxiao raised her hand and told Qingyu to stay where she was. She said to Jing Mo, "You just said you bought her?"
Jing Mo said, "She's just a slave girl. Does Your Highness mind?"
Gu Xinglang said coldly: "This maid was sold by my Gu family."
Jing Mo said, "Why, I can't buy the slaves that the Gu family sells?"
Yu Xiao: "Qingyu, I seem to have heard this name somewhere before."
At this moment, even Xiaozhuang and Xiaowei standing by were anxious. Princess, you can't even remember the name of the person who stole your husband? How can this be okay?
Qingyu raised her head and glanced at Gu Xinglang. General Gu could see the affection in her eyes, but Her Royal Highness the Princess could not.
Gu Xinglang had no regrets towards Qingyu, but when he thought about the arrangement made by his family for Qingyu to leave him a successor in the prison, he felt uneasy. "If you can't remember, don't think about it," Gu Xinglang interrupted Yu Xiaoxiao, "What else do you want to eat? The food won't taste good if it gets cold."
Qingyu sighed softly and lowered her head again. Gu Xinglang had a cold and taciturn temper since childhood. Now seeing how this young master treated Yu Xiaoxiao, Qingyu knew that the third young master Gu had fallen in love with the princess. She was unwilling, but Qingyu could only endure this unwillingness. However, thinking that Yu Ziyi was going to Zhuri as a hostage, Qingyu gloated again. What if the person sitting in front of her was a princess? In front of the prince of the upper country, didn't she have to be humble and subservient?
"Princess," Jing Mo said to Yu Xiaoxiao, "Don't you remember this slave girl?"
Yu Xiaoxiao asked Qingyu: "How old are you this year?"
Qingyu didn't understand why Yu Xiaoxiao asked her age, but she still answered respectfully: "Your Highness, I am fifteen this year."
Tsk, Yu Xiaoxiao secretly smacked her lips. The cruel empress found a national teacher to seek fatherly love, and Yu Ziyi found a woman fifteen years older than him to seek motherly love? The genes of the tyrant in the palace are really problematic.
"Princess?" Seeing that Yu Xiaoxiao still ignored him, Jing Mo called out to her.
"She likes handsome boys," Yu Xiaoxiao said to Jing Mo, "She might not like a guy your age."
Jing Mo...
Everyone...
Your Highness, are you saying that the Third Young Master Gu is a handsome young man, while the First Prince Jing is an old man?
Jing Mo tried to hold back, but couldn't help it. With a "pa" sound, he slapped the table with his palm.
"Princess, please spare my life," Qingyu burst into tears and knelt on the ground to kowtow to Yu Xiaoxiao.
Yu Xiaoxiao was embarrassed. She didn't say she wanted to kill anyone.
Jing Mo looked at Yu Xiaoxiao coldly.
Everyone in Zhuri held their breath, ready to rush forward and capture Princess Linglong and her husband as soon as Jing Mo gave the order.
"What's wrong?" Yu Xiaoxiao asked when she saw Jing Mo staring at her.
Jing Mo said: "Princess, I am only nineteen years old this year."
…
Everyone was embarrassed. How desperate must Prince Jing be to follow Princess Linglong's topic?
Yu Xiaoxiao looked at Jing Mo again and said, "It's useless even if you are a handsome young man, because the person that Madam Chuqiu likes is still breastfeeding."
"Princess," Qingyu's voice suddenly became louder when she spoke to Yu Xiaoxiao, and she shouted at Yu Xiaoxiao, "I know that I was just wishful thinking before, but I am now your servant. Can't you forgive me, Princess?"
Jing Mo narrowed his eyes after hearing Qingyu's words. This slave girl was begging for mercy, but she was actually instigating him to teach Yu Xiaoxiao a lesson. After all, one has to look at the owner before beating the dog, right?
